Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, speaking at the opening of a new
initiative to train young Israelis in cyberwarfare, said that Israel’s
defense systems are under attack from Iran and vowed to create an ‘Iron
Dome’ for the country’s networks. “Israel’s vital systems are under
attack from Iran and other elements. This will only increase as we enter
the digital age,” he said in a Tuesday speech at Ashkelon Academic
College.
The cyberwarfare training program is three years long and aimed
at outstanding pupils between the ages of 16 and 18. The Iron Dome is
an Israeli missile defense system that helped defend the country from
Hamas rocket fire during the Gaza-Israel conflict in November.
